George Loomis Quotes in Baby: Secret of the Lost Legend (1985)

[Last lines]

Susan Matthews-Loomis: Just another legend?

George Loomis: If we let it be.

George Loomis: In other words, some days you eat the bone; other days the bone eats you.

George Loomis: [after eating ants] This is absolute crap-o-ramma. Dead ants, live ants. I think I'm going to die.

George Loomis: [During sex] Go ahead and plant one on me.

[Baby licks George's nose]

George Loomis: OH! It French-kissed my nose! It kissed me!

Susan Matthews-Loomis: [Susan laughs] No. No, Baby. No.

George Loomis: Dragon breath. Get out of here!

George Loomis: Let me tell you something. You're young, you're in love. Well, I'll give you a warning. Don't let it get out of hand, like those falls out there. Up above... d'you ever see the river up above the falls? It's calm, and easy, and you throw in a log, it just floats around. Let it move a little further down and it gets going faster, hits some rocks, and... in a minute it's in the lower rapids, and... nothing in the world - including God himself, I suppose - can keep it from going over the edge. It just - goes.

Polly Cutler: Don't worry. I'm one of those logs that just hang around in the calm.

George Loomis: Too bad, they can't play it for you now, Rose.

[First line, voiceover as we watch him at the base of the Falls]

George Loomis: Why should the Falls drag me down here at 5 o'clock in the morning? To show me how big they are and how small I am? To remind me they can get along without any help? All right, so they've proved it. But why not? They've had ten thousand years to get independent. What's so wonderful about that? I suppose I could too, only it might take a little more time.

George Loomis: You smell like a dime store. I know what that means.

Rose Loomis: Sure. I'm meeting somebody, just anybody handy, as long as he's a man! How 'bout the ticket seller himself? I could grab him on the way out, or one of the kids with the phonograph. Anybody suits me. Take your pick.

George Loomis: I loved you, Rose. You know that.
